Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: A likely new locus QSns.sau-MC-3D.1 associated with SNS showing no negative effect on yield-related traits compared to WAPO1 was identified and validated in various genetic populations under multiple environments. The number of spikelets per spike (SNS) is one of the crucial factors determining wheat yield. Thus, improving our understanding of the genes that regulate SNS could help develop wheat...
